Lyric

A fragile heart that’s splitting right in two

I couldn't hold it tight, I didn't know what to do

With hollow eyes that lost the steady spark

I stared into the distance, deep into the dark

Fighting a loneliness that’s hard to justify

Underneath the borders of a heavy sky

Inside a light that burned too bright to see

I felt a sudden shadow closing in on me

A gathering eclipse of what used to be

At the intersection just before the dawn breaks through

I stared at the blinking lights of yellow, red, and blue

"I hate humanity," I shouted to the air

And yet the traffic signal standing over there

Is just another artifact that human hands had made

A part of the design that will never fade

The thoughts I couldn't catch, the words I couldn't bind

Brought a sudden blur, confusing all my mind

The world of rewinding lines that we used to keep

Crumbled down to pieces, falling in the deep

Tired of the question of why we must doubt

Exhausted by the noise they’re crying all about

Sinking in an answer that was easy to believe

Saved by the illusion that we chose to weave

At the intersection just before the dawn breaks through

I layered the salvation with the despair that I knew

The very thing that I can never bring myself to hate

The secret love I carry through the closing of the gate

Is just another artifact that human hands had made

Born from the same creators in the cosmic shade

At the intersection just before the dawn breaks through

I stared at the blinking lights of yellow, red, and blue

"I hate humanity," I shouted to the air

And yet the traffic signal standing over there

Is just another artifact that human hands had made

The very thing that I can never bring myself to hate

The phantom in the dark I can't evade

It’s just another artifact that human hands had made

A creation of the soul

Before the morning comes
